womble53 Posted May 11, 2018 Report Share Posted May 11, 2018 Today is Somerset Day. This is an initiative by Somerset County Council to celebrate all things Somerset. People were asked to nominate what they thought was good about the county & one of those nominations was Somerset Rebels. It didn't look as though they had much chance of progressing against the giants of the county, but they have made it to the Final. Its a great way to not only promote the county & the team, but also, I feel, the sport itself. So if you have a minute to spare & have a twitter account, why not visit the link below & cast a vote for the Rebel. Anything that brings the sport to a wider audience can only be a benefit Thanks Dave https://twitter.com/SomersetCouncil/status/994827145242431491?s=19 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aces51 Posted May 11, 2018 Report Share Posted May 11, 2018 I had already seen it on Twitter and voted but for those that haven't anything that helps the Rebels helps Speedway so let's see if we can get them to top the poll. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

womble53 Posted May 11, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2018 (edited) Things not going so well for the Rebels in the World Cup of Somerset. They've dropped back to third place, although not too far behind, just a few percent. There's still time, so if you haven't voted, please give the Rebels (and Speedway) a chance. If you have a twitter account, you can vote on the link below & please Retweet to everyone you know. https://twitter.com/SomersetCouncil/status/994827145242431491?s=19 VOTING CLOSES AT 4PM Many Thanks, Dave T Edited May 11, 2018 by womble53 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
womble53 Posted May 11, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2018 Well that's it, the race is all done. The Rebels made the podium, with joint third place, after leading in the early stages. The Winner was Hot Fuzz, The Wurzels were second, with the Rebels & Carnival in joint third. It was all a bit of fun to promote the county, and I guess it reached a lot of people, which can't be bad, especially if it put Speedway in front of a whole new audience. Now we just have to persuade a few of them through the gates. many thanks to all who vote, and helped keep the Rebels in with a chance for so long.
